Brisbane
The recent scores for Hugh McCluggage BRI (DK $6,400, DS $14,020) will turn many away on Friday night especially at his listed salary, in the last 4 games for the Lions he has started to work his way back into centre bounces which is noteworthy.
McCluggage scored a solid 95pts* against the Magpies last season in a heavy Brisbane defeat, a friendly match-up against Collingwood should provide an opportunity for a decent return on Friday night.
Ownership will likely be low to moderate for McCluggage.
Collingwood
Despite Brodie Grundy COLL (DK $8,300, DS $16,420) scoring 100pts or more in just 1 of his last 7 games the match-up on Friday night is quite favourable, Darcy Cameron has exited the Magpies team in Round 15 & with the significance of this game it is expected Grundy will be heavily used.
Grundy is averaging 92.0pts this season, he averaged 99.6pts from his opening 7 games in 2020 scoring 100pts or more in 4 of those games. A ceiling type game should be in play on Friday night.
The price tag for Grundy is quite reasonable, expect ownership to be strong.

Value
Ryan Lester (DK $4,200, DS $7,780)Â put together a pair of solid games prior to the Round 14 Brisbane Bye, he averaged 13.5 Disposals, 7.0 Marks & 4.0 Tackles (70.5pts) in his defensive role.
Collingwood & Brisbane are both ranked inside the top 4 for Inside 50 Differential this season, the Lions have fallen away a touch over their last several games. If the Magpies can win that battle on Friday night, then expect plenty of opportunities for Lester out of defence.
Ownership for Lester will be strong.
